Home Port

I wrote this story when the plot popped into my head and would not leave.

After months at sea, Petty Officer First Class Dean Mendez is back in San Diego, and he knows exactly how he wants to spend his first night home. Is the beautiful boy he finds on a nightclub dance floor the perfect companion for the evening, or is he much more?

Short prose story, approximately 6000 words. Warning: This romance story includes sex between men and explicit language.
